Buying the 1999 Dodge Ram
No 1999 Dodge Ram is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. The 1999 Dodge Ram for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.
Before you sign for the Ram
Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. NHTSA lists 9 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed.
The numbers in plain words
The EPA does not rate this model year for fuel use; heavier trucks and vans are often not rated.
Best uses
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.
Size and space
As a car, it is easy to drive and park in the city. Measured bumper to bumper, it is 5.81 m. Measure your parking spot or garage first.
Try before you buy
Rent the Ram for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide.
Year and trim
A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.
Money matters
Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
Ask us
A week with the car can save a costly mistake: request it now.
Rent it for a week before you buy
